ha, well I got huge. Gained about 15 pds, I can assure you it wasn't all muscle.. but that goes without saying.
Focus, where you at?
Who said you could get fat!? Haha.
Yeah, we did kinda abandon the site, hey? But, uh, I'm still training. Mostly.
Took about two weeks off late December, ate whatever I felt like and did only accidental exercise, haha. That was fun, and a needed break, but, and this is the part that gives me a serious case of the
s, I got tired of it pretty quick! Started to feel real disgusting and without even a push here I am again.
In pretty good shape now, too. I do a 2 hour (45'ish miles, usually) bike most days, generally in the morning before eating, and it barely even feels like working (I'm exaggerating this, obviously, but what used to be 85% effort is now 70%, so). Still workin' on my DDR skills, too, haha.
Hour or two a day, usually. I like it cause I don't have to find ways to keep my mind occupied while I'm doing it.
Haven't run in a while, but on purpose - for some reason running any kinda mileage makes me hungry as hell relative to other stuff, which makes it really hard to stick to my goal deficit. Learned that lesson the hard way in November, haha. I figure since my basal level of fitness suffices to a half-marathon, it's not really an issue. I'm actually fairly sure I can survive the half-Ironman (respectably so, even) as is, but dammit I'm gonna be lean.. and fast. :SaiyanSmilie_anim:
And I
still haven't done any swimming. I'm
still not worried. I'm terrible.
For weights 'n' stuff, I stopped going to the uni gym a few weeks ago and started messing about with bodyweight stuff. Not because I was burning out on it or anything, just getting tired of how crowded and full of trogs the place is. I can't believe it. All that complaining I did about the YMCA.. man, I miss that place.
But, I also miss throwing heavy **** around, so, I don't think this bodyweight thing is gonna last, despite the excellent performance gains I'm making. Pondering making my buddy get a membership at a Gold's or similar near us both and train with me there. And the more I do, the better it sounds.
I think I might have those badass transformation pics pretty soon. I haven't been taking them very regularly at all (my last progress shots were mid September!), but I'm gonna get on that. I don't feel like I've come all that far physically just yet but mentally I feel really good. Feeling real dedicated, patient and realistic these days. It's only a matter of time.
Let's get an update, rws. How's you? Be explicit, haha. Are you still kicking MS's ass? If not, why, you bastard!?
